The ball is played out to the full back, who looks to play a 1 touch pass to the winger who i moving inside to receive the pass. The full back looks to make an over lapping run.
The winger plays the ball to the CM, who picks out the Full back to then lay it off to the winger whos making a forward run. The winger then makes his final pass the further waiting midfielder.
The furthest player then restarts the play with a long pass to the waiting defender.
